So far the lessons and associated exercises are enjoyable. I like the UI, it's dense but easy to use. One gripe: when listening to each lesson by aux in my car or by bluetooth headphones, there is a "crossfade" that omits the first second or so off each sentence which is jarring and makes it impossible to follow the speech exercises. Update 26/5/25: It's better with headphones but still has crossfade loss when using an aux cable meaning no good for driving (my car has no touchscreen).

Oh no! We sincerely apologize for the troubles you've had with the Pimsleur app. We are going to forward it to the development team for further investigation. In the meantime, we recommend playing the lessons with the Android Auto, as the app is fully compatible with it.We're here to help. Thanks!

I've only been using this for two days but I've used other language programs and this gives you a lot more for your money. I love that it starts you out with speaking and listening practice from the very beginning. I struggle the most with listening comprehension. Danes speak very quickly though so I'll see how much it helps in the context of real life. Update: I finished all 30 lessons of Danish and the enrichment exercises and I'm so sad there isn't more. I love this method though.

Hi Ærin! We are happy to hear you enjoy our method! I won't say, we've heard this before ... but we have! :) So happy you are finally learning to speak and focusing on conversation. We focus on developing listening skills through various techniques pioneered by Dr. Pimsleur. Happy learning. You've got this! Pimsleur team.

This method is horrible for adults. There are no visuals with the lessons, so you have to rely on hearing the unusual way they're pronouncing a language you don't know with spelling that is very different from your native language. I'm not a 2yo - I'm 60 and can read much better than your app can annunciate. Half the time I can't even tell what your app is saying. Then I see the word / letters and understand. I moved on to another app that uses both aural and visuals with much better success.

Hi Chris, learning a new language involves learning a new sound system (i.e., new sounds not in English sound system.) If you don't know the sound, you also can't read it! So it's essential to train your ears to decipher these new sounds. That's what we do! After the lesson, you can look at the visuals for all the content in the review exercises.
